Killed by "normal OCing". Stuff you can do in the bios. Or just plain dead due to manufactuering defects etc... (modding or extreme cooling abuse excluded)
I bought the MSI budget 790X board before letting others be the guinea pig. My pioneering spirit died with the mosfets.
Also, how stable is the vcore? It doesnt appear to have as much power regulation hardware. Is it 4 stage?
*edit* found this on the asus page.
"4+1 Phase Power Design
Longer Life, & Higher Efficiency!
Unleashes ultimate memory performances with independent power to core components, while providing fast transient response and stability for the CPU under heavy loading or overclocking modes."
Sounds promising.
